Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - Nintendo Wii

First of all I would like to say that I own all of the 3 major FPS series on Wii; Goldeneye, Conduit, and Cod. And MW3 EASILY is the best option. I will list below the features it has, and the other wii FPS games that have them. Voice chat: MW3 and Conduit has voice chat, except Modern warfare's is much better. Gun customization. MW3 easily wins this category also. Mw3 allows the player to put 2 attachments on the primary weapon, a proficiency (improves statistics), and also a pre-made camouflage. You can also change the shape of the red dot if you use a red dot sight. Goldeneye allows 1 attachment on a weapon, and Conduit doesnt allow any. LOBBY SIZE: This is one category that Mw3 loses. It has a lobby size of 10 people per game, and conduit 2 can include 12 people in a game. Goldeneye can only include 8 per game. Killstreaks: Mw3 has around 20 different killstreaks that can be used, while conduit and goldeneye have none. Both Conduit and Goldeneye will tell you what number killstreak you are on, but you will never earn rewards besides XP for it. Game types: Mw3 destroys the competition in this. First of all many more people play mw3 so you will find more games, and it also has so many game types. goldeneye and conduit only have 7-8 game types approximately. Survival: Goldeneye has no "survival mode", however conduit 2 and mw3 do. Mw3's is endless (play till you die), and conduit's goes up to wave 20 (I think). besides this difference the two are extremely similar. The one other difference is that conduit two uses split screen 2 player, and mw3 uses online 2 player. Multiplayer: This is Mw3's weak point. there is absolutely zero split screen in the entire game. Goldeneye and Conduit 2 have 4 player split-screen. Ally system: in online multiplayer goldeneye probably has the worst ally system. two allies need to exchange friend codes to play. In conduit, you have to do the same, but you can also add players to your "Rival List" so you know who they are the next time you play with them. In Modern Warfare 3 the Ally system is the best out of any wii game made so far. You can add allies just by clicking on their name, and you can send text messages and game invites to them. The text message option is an amazing addition to the game, especially if you don't have a Wii voice chat mic. Overall Mw3 wins by a lot. The other games are still fun though. MAJOR PROS: Online gameplay, gun customization, killstreaks, survival mode online, ally system.

The only con: graphics for Wii are standard definition. As in 480 pixels across. This is dwarfed now-a-days by all the 1080 pixels across content. So if you're used to Xbox and Playstation, understand that playing this Wii game on your 1080 or even 4K TV will mean you'll see a game that looks kinda blocky. Also, controls are a LITTLE wonky. They can be customized to a point but I found myself several times trying to get out of places and not being able to because the controls were not intuitive. (I was using the Wii Zapper). But you'll quickly forget about that because of the pros. PROS: While it's 480, those 480 graphics are brilliant. Far more details and immersive than many of the other Wii games I've played. But this game is more than pixels, it's what those pixels are bringing to you in terms of story and excitement. This is a first person shooter with a storyline that is linked to previous games though you don't have to have played the previous games to follow this storyline. Each level takes you to a different part of the world, wielding a new kind of weapon, riding a new kind of vehicle... as acting as a new character! And the action is EPIC. Even now, in the summer of 2016, this game feels like I'm playing a current hollywood blockbuster movie trilogy all in a single game. You're dropped off in New York City where you witness buildings crashing down on you. You're on the streets and in the buildings and on the rooftops. Later you're under water riding an underwater jet ski following a massive submarine. Then you're in the jungle, sniping. Then in a dry sandy village. You're down in the subway tracks, in the back of a jeep driving after a speeding subway car! You're running through the streets of Germany. Of France. You're piloting bombing air craft. There are SO many enemies ahead of you hiding in so many different places. It feels SO immersive! It's no an open world game but at times it feels so. Flying high above the area before you land really gives you a feeling of how much space you could have to run around. When you're in the thick of the action though, there's just too many enemies to considering wandering around sight seeing although they'll be a bit of that! So many places to hide and duck. Damaged buildings you can wander upstairs and downstairs in. While most levels have a main single path to follow (and a fellow soldier to follow) you more often than not always have a second or 3rd way to get there. Behind the buildings, a side road or on the rooftops. It's not COMPLETELY linear, you see. The action is so intense that I've played the game twice now because it was just so exciting. And better yet, there is reason for completionists to play again - there are enemy computers with intel on them which you collect. I believe there are a grand total of 46 computers hidden throughout the game; 3-4 computers on each level. You don't have to find them to beat a level, it's just a fun side objective. At any point you can return to a level and replay it while looking for those computers (you don't lose your spot). There are a couple WARNINGS in the game, advising the player that there are disturbing scenes which you can opt out of (and this does not effect your score or your ability to win the game). From what I can tell so far, one scene that you can skip over is [SPOILERS]: After a level in which you have to stop trucks filled with explosives, you are placed on the street as a random father with his wife and daughter. You are looking through a camera view finder as the mom plays with the daughter on the street. One of the trucks seen previously pulls up next to the little girl and is detonated killing the girl, the mom and presumably the father (you). Not graphic in terms of literal gore - but certainly may be disturbing to some. [SPOILERS OVER. READ ON SAFELY!] All in all, this is a game that is JAM PACKED with excitement. It's even more exciting if you follow the plot but if you're like me, there's too much else to think of (wow look at those graphics! What are the controls? What will happen next? Where are we going? How to I survive all this?) No matter, the game is intense and exciting and it's a game I certainly want to play multiple times.

I bought a Wii for my kids for Christmas last year. Since then it's been dedicated to Lego Star Wars, Lego Batman and Dora princess games. Until now! I decided to get this for myself and I'm loving it! MW3 is my first adventure into FPS so I don't really have a comparison to anything else but I must say that this game is very well made. I can sit and play for hours (though I try not to, the wife doesn't like that very much). I have to keep the kids out of the room while I'm playing due to some foul language and the graphic violence but for adults this game is quality entertainment. I'm encouraging my brother to get a copy as well so we can play multiplayer together. Tons of fun!

Ok, so I have been looking for a game for my little cousin, who owns a wii, which I know is now a very outdated console since it’s 2019, but I don’t care. He wanted a game that can play two player multiplayer with a split screen, and we’ve tried different old CODs but none of them have that feature. However, this amazon page had a question and answer that said you could play 2 player multiplayer. Since I have prime and it was $7 I thought why not. Now I went into buying this knowing that the description of this game elsewhere from this page said it has NO split screen applications, which I was ok with, since it’s another single player plot to play out and even if it didn’t work it wasn’t much money and it was two days away. First Con: This package got “delayed in transit” and took much longer to get here than even normal, non-prime packages take. Second Con: This is why I gave this product 1 star and why I would have given it 0 stars if I could have... I opened the package that had finally come, the case is in very good condition, I open the case, and the disc reads Call of Duty World at War Xbox360 Live. What the heck. Anyway, I put in the headline that I bought this one from the “Family Fun Store” option of buying this. I just hope no one else buys from them again and had to deal with this problem.

I've been a little out of the gaming world for the past 3 years so I was excited to jump back in! But things have definitely changed. I recently purchased a Wii because I simply couldn't afford a PS3 or Xbox 360. But I missed playing FPS with my friends on screen. I attempted to play last night with a friend only to discover that I couldn't because Multiplayer is only available for online play. :( Depressing I thought. Fortunately my friend does have a Wii, but will he buy the game? Maybe, maybe not. To us it just might not be worth it. However for Wii, it's a great game. Graphics are surprisingly good. It could use some work on the storyline though. It's really hard to follow.

Well... I do pretty well at COD games in general, just to put it out there. I have played them all. I have issues with all of them. When black ops came out, i would of preferred to continue playing mw2, but mw2 got hacked on the ps3. I only learned later that they fixed it, but i was well into my black ops career by then. I hear a lot of people comparing this game to Battlefield. I guess it's just a difference of opinion when it comes down to it, but i had been playing Battlefield long before i played COD. Originally i played BF on pc. Then started playing COD on ps3. I initially got smoked on mw1. Then i did a little better on world at war. Understand that these games although under the COD umbrella are completely different. Then mw2 came out and something clicked for me in the ps3 gaming world. Since then, i have been addicted to COD on ps3. I play multiplayer almost exclusively and really enjoy the maps and the game play. I really can't stand the BF series. I thought Medal Of Honor was better than BF, but i won't stray far from COD. Now that i'm looking at "item being reviewed", it says on wii. Not sure why, as i don't own a wii and certainly didnt' buy that version. Again, i own the ps3 version and i love it.

MW3 is similar to the other MW games as far as single player mode goes. It's a continuation of the storyline started in the earlier MW series, with a definate conclusion. Once more, don't get too attached to the american characters as they are all killed off in the story line. Game play is straight forward, fairly fast paced. But now for the suck part, the on=line multiplayer is fairly disappointing. The maps are layed out much smaller than any of the other CoD games, with a lot of "clutter". Most annoying is the mini-map which blocks off a good part of your screen, it can block off an opponent in your field of vision if you're not careful. When playing "dominance" the flag icon also has a tendency to add unwanted clutter to the screen. Camping or sniping fans will be disappointed in this game as there are very few opportunities to get a killstreak going using a sniper rifle as your primary weapon. The map designers left very open areas suitable for sniping, it seems they want everyone to "run and gun". A couple of sweet spots can be found in "Mission", "Village" or "Fallen" but the rest of the maps are mainly designed for fast paced close quarter combat scenarios. As noted in another review, there is a tendency for the game to come to a complete standstill if the host bails out, which is unfair to the players that racked up a good score. It will be interesting where this franchise will go now that Nintendo decided to kill the Wii platform.

My teen has had the earlier Modern Warfare game in Xbox and this is the first Modern Warfare on Wii...we'll never buy Xbox again! This is far superior, the graphics are great, the online he says is great, easier and quicker to find a game, the titles and emblems are cooler than MW2, you can also change your gamer tag as much as you want and there is no fee (why is there always some fee involved with Xbox?) Very pleased, great game, and may I say, as a mom...I like that no one can send nasty private messages on Wii. Excellent Wii game!!!
